1021 3rd April, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.7/ET. Messrs. Ferodo Limited, Chapel-en-le-Frith, S T O C K P O R T. Attention of Mr. Shilton. Dear Sirs, Referring to our recent correspondence regarding bonnet rest, we sent you a blue print which called for this material one inch in width. Due to a change in design, we find that 1" would be too wide and that ¾" will be more suitable. We advise you of this, as you said in your letter of March 20th that you were going into the question of producing a beaded material similar to what we wanted. Yours faithfully, | ||
